Filmmakers, Politicians Push for Expanded Tax Credits to Keep Hollywood Productions in LA

Last week, Assemblymember Rick Chavez Zbur (D-Hollywood), State Senator Ben Allen (D-Santa Monica), and joint author Assemblymember Isaac Bryan (D-Culver City) announced the introduction of AB 1138 and SB 630, legislation aimed at modernizing California's Film & Television Tax Credit Program.

The bills are aimed at expanding and enhancing the state’s $750 million film tax credit program, which Gov. Gavin Newsom initially proposed last year.
